The 54 Reality Show

AUDIO: Organized Rebels - Men Of a Certain Age

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 16:04:00 +0000

Today is the official release date of the new E.P. from the duo CientifiQ and Virt aka Organized Rebels. This duo is as true to that classic hip-hop sound as you can find here in Central Texas. The combination of rugged boom bap production by CientifiQ and smooth lyrical delivery by Virt is a perfect way to celebrate Feb. 7th aka the birth date of Dilla.

Taken from Cientifiq's blog:

All in all I think we delivered a quality project and I hope everyone who takes a listen agrees. This will not be the last you hear of Organized Rebels as we are set to create another project to end the year off.

Even though they're quite capable of holding it down on their own, they enlist the assistance of Hip-Hop pioneer MC Craig G to bless the mic. This is a great listen, and just the scratch of the surface from two guys determined to bring you good music. You can purchase the album now at www.Slaprapz.com for as little as 1 buck. Check it out below.

The 54 Reality Show is so official, and I'm glad you could be here to witness it. What randomly started as a very hastily thrown together weekly video blog in 2008, is now an extensive local entertainment outlet that has been a continual documentary of the Central Texas hip-hop scene.

Hyperbole aside, this weeks episode is packed to the brim. Check it out and leave your comments/thoughts below.

VIDEO: 54 Reality Show 2012 Ep. 1 2011 Recap

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:30:00 +0000

G-Christ is back in the states and the 54 Reality Show is 100% back in effect for the new year. To go forward though, we got to go back a bit and reflect on 2011. It was an interesting year full of highs and lows filled with great music and awesome performances. We can't look back for too long though, so we jump 2012 off the right way with a high energy performance from OPMG'z and the LOEG'z.

BRB... is coming soon and you can get the first single "PUMP IT UP" below. New blogs, new music, new energy, its going to be a great year.

&amp;amp;amp;lt;p&amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;a href="http://slaprapz.com/album/brb"&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;BRB... by Crew54&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;/a&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;amp;lt;/p&amp;amp;amp;gt;

VIDEO: HOTBOX254 MLK Episode & Boycott Mag MLK Interview

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:45:00 +0000

I gotta say, every now and then you get a great weekend full of local music and this weekend was one of them. First off, I stopped to check the newest edition of the Powerhouse TV Cipher with some of Austin's best getting it in. Then Sunday Riders Against The Storm and DJ Chorizo Funk put down one amazing MLK Birthday celebration with performances from Da'Shade Moonbeam and Bavu Blakes. Gargameljermel from the Hotbox254.com was in the building and caught the footage above which is just a taste of how dope an evening it was.

Black Mamba from www.BoycottMag.com was also out to provide his perspective on MLK and the event at hand. Click HERE to read the full interview, then watch the video below for even more coverage of a great evening.

VIDEO: GOODMAN-Creative Persuasion

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:23:00 +0000

Everyday I get emails for people submitting their music and videos to be posted to this blog. It's standard practice for music blogs, I should know I submit our stuff to blogs often. I won't lie, I don't check new stuff as often as I should, but every now and then I check and link and really enjoy what I stumble upon. Today I got an email from GOODMAN telling me about his "Creative Persuasion" LP with 50 instrumentals (that he's looking to fill with MC's so if you rap you might want to check it out,) and some dope artistic videos that you should check out for the art alone.

VIDEO: CientifiQ & A Better Tomorrow - Steel

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 01:18:00 +0000

In any stage of life when you meet hardworking people with like minded interests and full supply of dope work then you should count it as a blessing. Cientifiq (the beast behind the boards on our Slap Rapz album) is working on an upcoming project with Austin producer A Better Tomorrow. "Steel" is the first visual offering from this album, and it embodies their sound: raw and hard hitting. I had the fortune to work on this with "Hype Melz" from Hotbox254 Productions and in the end we hit yall with the video for "Steel."

This is simply mind blowing...

VIDEO: Cientifiq "Steel" Preview

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 21:27:00 +0000

Cientifiq is making some serious moves right now. He's dropping tracks for a variety of artist, working on the "Men Of A Certain Age" project with his Organized Rebel's partner Virt, and working on new bangers for the second edition of Slap Rapz. All the while, he's teamed up with A Better Tomorrow working on a E.P. that is just full of raw hip-hop. I'm talking that Guru/Preemo ish. Hotbox254 and DVZN Media tag teamed on the video for the track "Steel." I'm teasing yall with the video, while the iGoon General GargamelJermel is sending me the full version as I type.

Let this preview whet your appetite...

AUDIO: Crew54 - Pump It Up (First Single off "BRB...")

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 16:15:00 +0000

Shortly before G-Christ left to go overseas for 6 months, we decided to do an EP with a producer we've been wanting to work with for a while. S.Killz has been dropping bangers on 54 Reality Show regulars like Dubb Sicks, Japanese Jesus, and Cali Zack, so it was finally time for us to come together and make this happen.

I believe that with different Crew54 project we give you a different look into who we are, with a fresh sound. This is the first single "Pump It Up" and it goes extremely hard. Check it out, spread it around and let me know what you think.

If you don't know, G-Christ, has been spending the last 6 months in Afghanistan getting cabin fever working on some top secret military technology (well maybe not that top secret ha!) One of the results of all that time in the desert, is the him going Desert Storm on a beat (his own production as well) and dropping Sandbars Pt. 1. This is the type of raw lyrical rap music that you get from G, and with "BRB..." coming shortly please believe it only gets better from here.

Mandom Mag Presents: Sports Ish Group

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Mon, 31 Oct 2011 12:09:00 +0000

If you've ever been in the barber shop and someone brought up the local team and it exploded into an intense argument of shouting and jokes, then you know what Sports Ish is. Each week Melz and myself go in about the latest and greatest in the sports world, talking about busts, and making picks. Now we have a Facebook group where you too can join in the madness. We accept all slander, fanaticism, skepticism, and tomfoolery. Take a minute to visit the Mandom Magazine Presents: Sports Ish Facebook group.

It's ya boy Dookievizion here bringing you the latest and greatest in hip-hop visuals from Central Texas. I know there are folks who still yearn for the days of the Music Video Box, or when MTV & B.E.T. still actually played videos. Today I bring you three videos that caught my eye, check em out

Cali Zack & N/A - Money 2 Make

Props to the homie Justin from Detox Lightning Media for video, and the other homie Justin (Dubb Sicks) with the cameo.

VIDEO: DVZN Media Presents: The LOEG'z at A3C 2011

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 16:44:00 +0000

This video was one of the toughest I ever had to do, but it's also the one I am extremely proud to have been apart of. I remember hearing alot about Dred Skott a few years back, and even the homie Bavu told me straight up we'll love them. From the first time I saw how this unique duo attacked the stage, I was a fan. Octavis Berry, aka Esbe da 6th St. Bully, evoked nothing but pure passion in every encounter. I had a chance to speak with him, Lil J, Lowkey, and Blaxsmith about their time in Atlanta and how they feel about the music scene in Austin. Esbe will forever be remembered, and I think Bavu Blakes did an amazing job Eulogizing him at the end of this piece.

VIDEO:54 Reality Show: A3C 2011 Day 2

noreply@blogger.com (Crew54) — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 16:30:00 +0000

Day 2 of our video recap from 2011's A3C footage was filled with interviews and more great music. We spoke with lyrical heavy weight Skyzoo, 54 Reality Show favorite Carlitta Durand, and caught up with the up and coming Lyric Jones who is now fam for life. Austin was definitely showing a strong presence at A3C as the LOEG'z not only blessed the main stage opening up for Jean Grea & Big K.R.I.T., but they also blessed this weeks episode with one of the most memorable openings ever. Sadly, Octavis Berry, also known as Esbe da 6th St. Bully, passed away shortly after The League's return to Austin. The raw emotion and energy showcased in just the first seconds of this video display why he was one of the best, and will always be remembered.

I'm not too worried because The 54 Reality Show always does it the way we do it, no need to compete. What I do want to share are just a few of my favorite pics from those three days. You can always visit facebook.com/dookievizion to see the full album.
